I was getting around the unholy dependency issue caused by the centos-release package conflicting with the redhat-release package by upgrading everything else -- not it. It's been necessary to do this since RHEL versions were higher than any CentOS 8 Stream versions. This time round since CentOS has been archived, I made sure to install anything I hadn't and then manually purged centos-release from the rpm database. This allowed RHEL to update to 8.10, including the release package this time.

CentOS Stream 9 is supported until mid 2027; RHEL 8.10 is supported until mid 2029. Barring any new features or major incompatibility, I really don't see a pressing reason to do this. In fact, with no one stepping in to take over the project, there is a better chance of being supported by sticking with RHEL 8.10 (2+ years). > _______________________________________________ > Users mailing list -- users(a)ovirt.org > To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave(a)ovirt.org > Privacy Statement: https://www.ovirt.org/privacy-policy.html > oVirt Code of Conduct: https://www.ovirt.org/community/about/community-guidelines/ > List Archives: https://lists.ovirt.org/archives/list/users@ovirt.org/message/N2IMFDPB3V5...

Yea Proxmox is good for small clusters and basic stuff. Not for enterprise environments imo. Once we have found some good oVirt dev, we will contribute more to the project and keep it alive :) The more people contribute, the better it would be of course!

I am aware of all the alternatives; my question though is if I do stick it out with oVirt what should I do: If I decide to stick with oVirt and install daily snapshots, I assume what I will have to do is setup a new CentOS Steam 9 server, create a backup of the old server, and then restore on the new server. Like what I did when I was forced to migrate from CentOS 8 to RHEL8 (with CentOS 8 Stream packages). Is this right? I would also add that will I be able to restore the engine backup on the new up todate server form the version I have?
